Chapter 384: The undercurrent of Milan is surging
"Ricardo, what will you choose when you get old?" It's still the living room of Kaka's house, it's still in that posture, tilting his head and crossing Erlang's legs, Zhuo Yang and Kaka are chatting.
"I ...... It's hard to choose really, and I'll listen to God's will when the time comes. Kaka said. What about you? ”
"I'll be like Zinedine Zidane, just go."
"I believe what you say! Do you know Zhuo Yang? Kaka added: "You are the most special one in world football, you have left football, you still have the piano, you also have a high status on the piano, so you will not be nostalgic for football in the future." But it's hard for people like us to do that, and without football, there's nothing. ”
Today's topic starts with the captain Maldini. The horse team has been talking very little lately, although he has never been a man of many words, although his expression has always been calm like an ancient well, but everyone in Milanello knows that Maldini has a wave in his heart.
In the 6-2 win over Napoli more than a week ago, Maldini made two positional mistakes in the first half, and the opponent seized the opportunity to score two goals, and there were doubts in the media after the game, and the topic was very explicit - should Maldini retire?
Who is the best left-back in history may still be debatable, but if you want to talk about who has the highest prestige within a big club, it can only be AC Milan's Maldini, and in terms of the long span of influence, deep roots in the hearts of fans, relationship with the top and so on, Maradona, Cruyff, Beckenbauer and others are all defeated in front of Maldini.
It's hard to imagine that from Ronaldo, Djojankaka, to Andrea Pirlo, Gattuso, Ambrosini, to Odor, Favali and so on, if they were the bosses of other teams, they would all be respectful in front of Maldini.
It is believed that even after Maldini's retirement, as long as he wants, he will still maintain a high prestige in AC Milan and Milanelori, Berlusconi may become a thing of the past, but Maldini will not.
But football is a bowl of youth, and when the time came for the 40-year-old Maldini to have to make a choice, he was already very lucky, and to be honest, the choice was made a decade later than most professional players.
After that match against Napoli, AC Milan teammates all expressed their support for Maldini in interviews, and from the perspective of his teammates, no one felt that Maldini should leave, and neither did Zhuo Yang.
Reporters are not too big of a deal, with Maradona: Ravic is the best player in Serie A! The reason for this remark is to let Zhuo Yang talk about his views. Because all smart people can hear the voiceover, Zhuo Yang was the best player in Serie A last season, who else could he be?
"Who do you think is the best player in Serie A today?"
This question is actually very difficult to answer, Zhuo Yangruo answered: Me! The latter topic will inevitably be slapped by Maradona, what do you make Kaka think? What about Pirlo? But if you are humble enough to answer: Kaka! The media will inevitably interpret it as 'Zhuo Yang said that he is not as good as Kaka', and I am afraid that the image will be invisibly broken.
So, Zhuo Yang played a trick and said the most politically correct answer: Maldini!
There is nothing wrong with this sentence, no one can pick a thorn, no one dares to pick a thorn at will, and everyone is happy, and by the way, they also stand on the platform for the horse team.
The latter topic was more interesting, the reporter directly asked him to talk about his views on Lavic, and Zhuo Yang did not worry too much: "Ravic is a very good player, he created some threats for us today, I believe he has a good prospect." "A tone of talking about juniors. Immediately afterwards, Zhuo Yang changed his words: "Of course, if you want to talk about Argentina's best player now, it can only be Leo Messi." ”
This is also a recognized fact, but combined with the interviews before and after, Zhuo Yang's meaning is undoubtedly that Ravitch is still far from it, and Maradona is outdated.
Turning to Messi in Barcelona, he said: "Argentina has a lot of good players, I'm still young. But if you want to say who is the most outstanding in football today, I think it is Ronaldinho and Zhuo Yang. ”
Look at this round of sycophants!
Back to Maldini! Yesterday, in the final group game of Group C of the UEFA Cup, AC Milan hosted Ceszilla Boreslav Republic, and the horse team was still in the field and still at left-back.
In fact, it was also a make-up match, and UEFA adjusted the schedule for AC Milan in order to support them in their full campaign for the Club World Cup. Originally, it was discussed with Milan to see if it could be placed during the Christmas period, but Milan was embarrassed, and Boreslaw was also reluctant, so UEFA gave up and simply arranged it on January 20.
There was no suspense in the game, with Boreslav being the weakest team in Group C, with AC Milan winning 6-1 at home. In the first half, Ronaldo and Pato partnered up front, Luo Tianwang and Kaka each scored a goal, and AC Milan led 2-1. In the second half, Carlo Ancelotti brought on Zo Yang and Gilardino successively, and Zhuo Yang scored a hat-trick at half-time and assisted Ambrosini for a goal.
At this point, the group stage of the League Cup is over, AC Milan won 2 and drew 2 to advance to the second place in the group, and the opponent of the 1/16 knockout round will be Rosenborg. Villarreal topped the group with 3 wins and 1 draw, and AEK Athens ranked third with 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.
The game was uneventful, but the only goal conceded by AC Milan came from Maldini's poor marking in the first half, and this time there was even more condiment.
There was more murmur in the media, and it is unknown whether there was any encouragement from the club's top management, but there should be a high probability that it exists. In fact, Galliani and Braida do not want to push Maldini to retire, but they must start to gradually reduce his influence and suggest that Maldini should no longer be obsessed with the main position. They were so jealous of Maldini.
Don't say 40 years old, even if you are 50 years old, if Maldini says publicly: Milan can only take out the contract and ask him to sign it, otherwise the fans will tear down San Siro, believe it or not?
By the same token, the team has not yet said that they are willing to play as a substitute, so no one dares to marginalize him while he is healthy, and Maldini's slightest complaint will cause an uproar in Milan.
As a result, Ancelotti had to return Maldini to his already difficult left wing-back under pressure from the top, in order to make him retreat on his own. This season the club has not pursued much in terms of competitive results, and it is fitting to remind Maldini of the sacrifice of small places.
It's hard to tell the right from the wrong in this kind of thing, and each has different positions and different goals that need to be defended the most. In fact, there is also a lack of consistency in the attitude towards Maldini at the top, with the big boss Silvio Berlusconi always admiring the team, but he is detached in these matters. Director Braida believes that Maldini can still have a positive impact on Milanello, and he believes Maldini is a wise and open-minded person who will make his own choices that will benefit both parties.
CEO Galliani is the toughest of the list, believing that no one can be above the club, not Maldini, not the round table. In fact, what no one has touched on is the power struggle within the Berlusconi family, which is the deepest cause of the Maldini incident.
When it comes to the political struggle under power, everything will always be very complicated, so I won't be busy with the interpretation here, and when it comes to our protagonist, let me go into detail.
